"What are you up to?"
"Oh, just ironing some plastic, nothing special y'know..."

We had lots of plastic bags lying around, and since we usually use fabric totes they were only taking up space. But the internet has an answer to anything, even how to turn plastic bags into something fun and crafty. Therefore I present to you: Plastic bag version 2! It's lined with plastic too, a white plastic to give it a cleaner, simpler look on the inside. The handle is vinyl (and I'm almost sad to say, not recycled, but from my stash)

And my favorite detail from one of the bags I used, which seemed so very appropriate:

I absolutely LOVE the color block technique you used with this. It looks so professional and very stylish. Awesome job.

That looks totally awesome!  Wish my plastic bags were more colorful - they tend to be white with various-colored lettering on them.  Not nearly so cool-looking as this!  Therefore, they are destined to collect cat litter rather than become an awesome bag.  Too bad for them!

This looks great!  I like how you incorporated "100% recycled" in there.

I am an apologist for the spiders.

Just treat me no differently than you would the Tarantula Queen.
